Features :
Bridge Humbucker - Passive

I don't know the specs which is why I'm posting here. For nearly 2 years I had this Fender Highway 1 USA strat and after trying 4 top of the line humbuckers at the bridge, my Pacifica STILL sounds better on the distortion channel. It just has a nice full warm overdrive and for the life of me I can't find a name brand bucker that willl give me a similar sound.

Instrument :
Yamaha Paciifica 112J
Bridge

Sound : 7
- Med to High output
- Peavey Bandit and Mesa Boogie F30
- Modern Rock - also sound good for metal which I don't play

Overall Rating : 7
I'm about to give in and try switching pickups with the Ibanez pickup that's currently in my strat. If the Pacifica still sounds better, I guess the Strat is not the axe for me. I don't know why that would be consiidering I paid $300 Canadian for my PAC and the strat was $800 brand new.

If anyone knows what kind of pickup this is, be it the DC resistence, Tone settings or magnet type, PLEASE email me at hinrich@yahoo.com
